The two of them were very kind to him, and with a bit of persuasion, they managed to settle things.

Zhou Zhizhi was utterly fed up with it.

Seeing Zhang De's greasy eyes fixed on him.

It disgusted her.

Having finally escaped from that situation, I've now finally understood everything that happened.

Moreover, the city was completely different from what they had imagined.

Although there are many conservatives, it's not to the point where they are completely powerless to resist.

The two walked behind, escorted out of the city by Zhang De's guards.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's getting late now, and there are trees on both sides; it's pitch black further in.

It was as if thousands of eyes were watching them.

"This Zhang De is disgusting."

Zhou Zhizhi spoke softly, feeling much better after venting her anger.

Xiao Xiyou raised an eyebrow in surprise: "I thought you were quite willing?"

His words left Zhou Zhizhi speechless for a long time.

She just stared at him like that, wanting to say something but holding back.

She felt that this person was someone she couldn't afford to offend, but she couldn't swallow her anger.

"Your Highness, do you think I've taken a liking to him?"

Zhou Zhizhi's face was flushed with anger, and her chest heaved slightly.

She really felt like she had been bullied.

They didn't even dare to say it out loud.

She could only stare at the man in front of her with a fierce look.

I keep thinking about myself, is there really something wrong with me?

wrong.

She's fine; it's the second prince who's going blind.

Of course, these words can only be uttered in one's heart for a while.

Otherwise, even if you publicly express your anger, you might not know what you should do in return.

Xiao Xiyou hesitated for a moment, then slowly curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.

"In that case, don't say things that will cause them to misunderstand in the future."

"What do you mean by an eight-bearer sedan chair? And what else do you want to marry him for?"

Xiao Xiyou felt a strange, sour feeling in his heart.

Now it's all good, I can finally feel a bit more comfortable.

Zhou Zhizhi snorted coldly: "Does the world think that if I hadn't said it that way, we would still be able to get out?"

"I saved Your Highness, and now Your Highness is turning around and picking a fight with me. Isn't that a bit too heartless?"

Zhou Zhizhi simply couldn't stand it anymore.

Good intentions are misunderstood.

If you didn't like how you were, why did you remain silent in the first place?

Is he mute?

Zhou Zhizhi was speechless.

But Xiao Xiyou had no idea.

"Then you won't need to get married in two days. I will find someone myself."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhizhi's eyes brightened slightly.

Finally, I heard what I wanted to hear.

However, they still hesitated slightly, since they hadn't brought any maids with them when they came out.

If Zhang De knew she hadn't gotten into the bridal sedan chair, wouldn't he be furious?

"Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

"Although I really want to stay out of this, I'm the only girl in Suixin."

She didn't want to make things more complicated.

All we need to do is get rid of those people.

Xiao Xiyou smiled faintly: "We brought quite a lot of men, and they come in all shapes and sizes."

"Finding someone with a similar build to you wouldn't be difficult."

Zhou Zhizhi: "???"

That's what she said, but why did she feel so uncomfortable?

But it's not all bad, since my troubles have been completely resolved.

Then there's no need to rack your brains to mentally prepare yourself anymore.

After all, that guy was really fat and greasy, and he had those greasy eyes glued to her body.

It's to the point that she has nightmares about it.

Zhang De wasn't idle either.

Knowing that I'll be marrying my beautiful bride in a couple of days, I'm overjoyed.

Li Chen was his capable assistant.

They could be considered the leader of the bandits, but now they have reached some kind of agreement.

The bandit leader became a general, which is considered second only to the emperor.

He was quite satisfied. As long as his brothers had food to eat and were doing better than before, what more could they ask for?

"General Li, have some things prepared properly. I, the King, am going to marry a concubine."

After hearing this, General Li hesitated slightly.

"Your Majesty, you already have dozens of beauties in your harem. If you were to take another wife, I'm afraid..."

I didn't tell him the truth when he said that.

But even these words made Zhang De very dissatisfied.

His face instantly fell.

What do you mean by that?

"Of course, I want to ensure that the harem has many offspring so that my descendants can inherit the throne."

"What's wrong with having a few more concubines in the harem?"

He said this with such confidence that he never even considered that the throne was obtained by someone who trusted him.

After listening, General Li chuckled faintly and did nothing.

After all, if he disagrees with this matter, it doesn't seem like he'll actually change anything.

But if it were before, Zhang De might have listened to some of his words, but now that beautiful woman is more beautiful than any of the women in his harem.

He was really unhappy if he didn't take it.

What do you mean by that?

"Does this mean they disagree?"

His tone was also somewhat cold as he angrily sat down on the throne.

He looks like he's a little too intimidating, like he's about to explode at any moment.

General Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Your Majesty, it seems we need to discuss this matter properly, of course, after you have married this concubine."

General Li has clearly conceded.

After hearing this, Zhang De felt a little better, and his anger from before had long since dissipated.

The smile on his face was enough to show that he was a very easily satisfied person.

"General, what are you saying? Once I win this concubine's heart, I will not take another concubine for two years."

His words brought a slight sense of relief to the assembled officials and General Li.

Their most important task now is to bring all the wealthy people from the surrounding villages into their Le'an City.

As for the silver, the expenses and such are actually quite large. The items sold in the shops are just at the normal market price. As for the extra amount, it all belongs to the royal family.

This is how they were able to live here without worrying about food or clothing, spending money like water.

However, after the court session, General Li did not give him a friendly look at all.

"What should we do now, boss?"
